Pros

Management has changed for the better over the last few years and is continuously seeking ways to improve. New leadership in IT has resulted in a more focused, productive environment. Benefits and salary are at or above industry standards. Office location is convenient with lots of shopping and businesses within walking distance. T bus station conveniently located at the intersection of Rte 3A and Wall Street.

Cons

There has been changes in the company over the past year and change is never easy. With this change came a few layoffs as the various business units fine tuned their needs and restructured their organizations. As with any restructuring, unhappy current and former employees choose to voice their opinion anonymously on line vs. addressing with the management directly to resolve.

Pros

Decent benefits Hybrid WFH schedule Some really great direct managers

Cons

Chaotic and disorganized, with old outdated backend systems. Work performance and output not generally recognized: people who do very little work are often paid the same, or more than people who do double or triple the workload, and are allowed to continue with the company while other shoulder the load. Once you are on a team or part of a BU - good luck making a move to another team or BU. The place is a revolving door for a lot of positions, but once you learn a skillset they are unlikely to allow a move. The sales team runs this place, so be prepared to be bullied constantly by them, even when you are told to gatekeep.
